Other Apple.com iPhone 12/Pro/Max/Mini Pre-Order/Order Status/Delivery Thread (2020) [Merged]

It’s a pain but to avoid any potential glitches (I bricked a phone once) just set it up as a new phone, upgrade to 14.2, then restore from your current 14.2 backup. I don’t want to do all that, so that’s why I’ll just wait. Or wait for others to say what the Max comes with on Friday since UPS doesn’t come until late on iPhone day here

i get it at 8am so i will let you know...Although i am on the west coast so i guess i wont be the first...NM lol

I’m thinking with today being a Federal holiday in the US we may not see any scans today. Probably running on reduced staff at various facilities.

Isn’t Anchorage to Louisville like a 11 hour flight?

UPS is operating in full force today. Also, it’s not an international holiday.

I’m planning on setting it up as new. My current iPhone is way too buggy and its got random bugs and glitches. Going to start out fresh from scratch.

This always sounds good, but I always end up using a back up. The thought of going through each app settings and notifications, all my recurring reminders, and the most importantly, starting from scratch on my wifi password storage. My mission is to have every wifi password in the world on my phone . But for real I hate asking friends and family for their wifi passwords.

A lot of places don't take today off so I think we should be fine. I think USPS will even deliver today, just post offices are not open. I could be wrong though and feel free to correct me if I am.

 

[Shadowbech]

Dammit, I upgraded to 14.2

Simple. When you get Pro Max, set it up as new without Apple ID, do a software update, and then do erase all content and settings and then do a back up. XD

Post Office will not deliver, (only Amazon packages and other things, but not general mails).

My Pro Max Silicone Case is out for delivery today. Excited to get it and really get a feel for just how big this phone is going to be.

 

[anjo10]

OMG this just happened.
Just signed up for Apple Card and got approved. (Not sure if my husband will be happy with this since he did not want each to have a card🤫)
Ordered plum silicone case for pro Max and MagSafe charger.
Will be picking up later today at a store. ☺️

Are you a wizard?

 

[ejfontenot]

Thanks but it must be in Louisville by 2:00am tomorrow in order for it to get through customs and be delivered on schedule Friday. They are simply running out of time.

Keep us updated. You will be surprised how fast things move when they start moving!

I don't think so. I didn't get an Informed Delivery email this morning from USPS and they're federal.

This is me too, I hate going through that. But like OP had said I have been having problems with my iPhone 11 I never had before. Currently the phone has 26.78GB used as "Other System Data"

7 hours and about 30 minutes

Ahhh thank you!

US Customs officials will have the day off so there might be some delayed scans

 

[Gathomblipoob]

Yeah, I'm an ex federal employed (retired AF). I know my federal holidays. I was just trying to couch my reply in more easy-going terms than I usually do.

 

[Sailormannn]

I wonder if UPS Canada has blocked searching for the track using a phone number. In past launches I’ve always been able to find the track before getting the “shipped” notification from Apple.

Iphone 12 pro max is definitely taking a different path here in Canada. Mine just showed up in UPS Tracking for Friday delivery without any history shipping from China, etc. It looks like these are coming in in bulk here like a store shipment then despatched from the UPS Hub.
